If you are concerned about the fat in coconut milk, you could always use the So Delicious Unsweetened Coconut Milk. Containing only 50 calories & 5 grams of fat in one cup, it is much lower in fat & calories than the canned varieties of coconut milk are.

Thank you Linda Middlesworth for sharing truth about proper diet for diabetes. Another excellent resource on this topic can be found at Dr.John McDougall’s website http://www.drmcdougall.com. Again, the prevention and cure of most diseases and illnesses comes from consuming a whole foods, high complex carb plant based diet.

Susan — This was awesome! I would have never thought to put broccoli and sweet potatoes together, but it totally worked. I threw in some spinach at the end since I had it on hand and it blended in nicely. This recipe is a keeper.

Dear people with diabetes: you do not need to watch carbs! The best way to reverse diabetes is to eat complex carbs and NO animal fat saturated from animal flesh or secretions! Get Dr. Neal Barnard: Reversing Diabetes. My clients always reverse diabetes by going low fat plant based!

The CARB myth is still out there…oh vey!

i’d also like to add a big thanks to Susan for these very conscientious recipes- I am also impressed with the wealth of nutrition information and full disclosures of every recipe. I’ve been browsing this website for a few weeks and made a few tasty recipes, and I must say, it has completely transformed how i view food and I now more than ever believe that there are a lot of ingredients in food that simply don’t need to be there for a tasty meal.

All foods contain fat (except for water). Broccoli is 10% calories from fat. Romaine lettuce is 14.7% calories from fat. There is no such thing as a fat-free food, and the 15% guideline is low by most standards (the American Heart Association) and right in line with others (the McDougall program). This site uses the common definition of fat-free, which is posted on the FAQ’s page: No oil or margarine, no animal products, and preferably no high fat vegetable foods (nuts, seeds, avocado, or coconut). The complete definition is there in the FAQs and has been for years.

“Less than 15% of calories from fat” is not fat free. Fat free is 0% of calories from fat. So, yes – “many” of your recipes contain fat. They may not be high fat and they may still be very healthy but they are not fat free recipes. So, you should expect some comments about that and may want to rethink telling readers they are being “snippy” for pointing out an obvious contradiction between your blog moniker and the content.
